The best part of going to Ladakh for adventure sports are the stunning landscapes and azure skies that provides a fitting backdrop for your adventures. While playing in the snow, you are constantly surrounded by beautiful sights, amazing architecture and cultured people that make the whole exercise that much more pleasurable and enjoyable. The setting accentuates the experience and also guarantees some stunning pictures to remember them by.<\/p>\n
The best way to get to Ladakh is to fly into its charming capital city of Leh. This is a picturesque Himalayan city perched high up in the mountains at 1000 ft. but still has all the facilities and supplies needed for an epic expedition of exploration and discovery. Upon arrival, you should spend your first day in Leh acclimatizing to the incredible altitude and orienting yourself to your new surroundings.<\/p>\n
After resting at your resort for a day, you will be ready to explore the city, pick up supplies and check out some of the famous landmarks here such as the Shanti Stupa and Leh Palace. You will feel like a serious adventurer as you navigate the labyrinthine by lanes of Leh to get all the provisions you need for the adventure ahead. The colorful attire of the local people and the peaceful, Buddhist vibes<\/a> here will instantly endear you to this magical place and make your trip memorable.<\/p>\n The most popular local sport here is ice-skating, also called Shinny. Locals fashion ice hockey sticks from wooden branches and play a Ladkahi version of the sport at the many frozen lakes, rivers and ponds that lay scattered all over the countryside. The flat frozen surface is perfect for ice-skating and the large lakes offer plenty of room to zip around safely. Before skating, you should always ensure that the ice is thick enough and won\u2019t crack.<\/p>\n You can also ski in Ladakh as there are plenty of slopes here of varying difficulty levels. The flaky snow ensures a soft landing and the tall mountains provide plenty of long stretches with no impediments. You can also find interesting natural formations here that are fun to ski around and many trails that you can explore. Besides skiing, you can also enjoy a host of other activities such as trekking, ice dipping, boating and more. Trekking is an especially great way to explore the treasures of Ladakh.<\/p>\n Recently, wildlife treks and excursions have been gaining in popularity in Ladakh as visitors are increasingly interested in witnessing the unique bio-diversity found here. Visitors can go on a Brown Bear or Snow Leopard expedition to select areas where they can observe these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. These treks can be incredibly educational about the natural world and are also a lot of fun for individuals and groups.<\/p>\n In Ladakh, there are many travel and tour companies that can direct you to the best locations for various sports. You also rent equipment from them and join their regularly scheduled group tours for beginners, intermediaries or advanced sportsmen. Good tours and travel companies have a lot of experience and can be very effective in making all the arrangements so that you can focus on having a good time and chasing the thrill that you came here for.<\/p>\nWhat to do in Ladakh<\/strong><\/h2>\n
